Behavioral and Physiological Thermoregulation of Crocodilians [PDF]
American Zoologist, 1979 Crocodilians, like other reptiles, regulate their body temperatures by a combination of behavioral and physiological mechanisms. Behaviorally, they seek warm surface water or bask when cool and avoid overheating by the evaporation of water from their dorsum, evaporation of water by gaping or by retreating to deep, cool water.

Environmental assessment for the Satellite Power System (SPS): Studies of honey bees exposed to 2.45 GHz continuous wave electromagnetic energy [PDF]
, 1980 Post treatment brood development was normal and teratological effects were not detected at exposures of 3 to 50 mw sq cm for 30 minutes. Post treatment survival, longevity, orientation, navigation, and memory of adult bees were also normal after ...

Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2013 Global warming is now recognized worldwide. Thermoregulation is critical for human survival when exposed to a severely hot environment. Thermoregulation is closely related to physical fitness, but fitness decreases with advancing age.

Ecosphere, 2021 Marine mesotherms are able to occupy broader thermal niches than ectotherms; however, this means they must thermoregulate according to diverse thermal conditions across the ocean.

Real-time nanodiamond thermometry probing in-vivo thermogenic responses [PDF]
Science Advances 6, eaba9636 (2020), 2020 Real-time temperature monitoring inside living organisms provides a direct measure of their biological activities, such as homeostatic thermoregulation and energy metabolism. However, it is challenging to reduce the size of bio-compatible thermometers down to submicrometers despite their potential applications for the thermal imaging of subtissue ...

Behavioral niche partitioning in a sympatric tiger beetle assemblage and implications for the endangered Salt Creek tiger beetle [PDF]
PeerJ, 2013 How behavioral patterns are related to niche partitioning is an important question in understanding how closely related species within ecological communities function.

Li4Ti5O12: A Visible-to-Infrared Broadband Electrochromic Material for Optical and Thermal Management [PDF]
Advanced Functional Materials, 2018, 28, 1802180, 2019 Broadband electrochromism from visible to infrared wavelengths is attractive for applications like smart windows, thermal-camouflage, and temperature control. In this work, the broadband electrochromic properties of Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) and its suitability for infrared-camouflage and thermoregulation are investigated.

Behavioral thermoregulation in the American lobster Homarus americanus [PDF]
, 1995 It is generally accepted that water temperature has a strong influence on the behavior of the American lobster Homarus americanus. However, there is surprisingly little behavioral evidence to support this view. To haracterize

Spring fever: collared lemmings warm up above the snow despite predation risk
Frontiers in Ecology and EvolutionSmall mammals inhabiting cold climates face high heat losses and thus, high energy demands for body temperature regulation. However, behavioral adaptations, such as seeking refuge from extreme cold in the subnivean space, can reduce the energetic cost of
